WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Bulk Media Register < 2.01 - Author+ Arbitrary File Move via Path Traversal

Description

The plugin does not properly validate a user-supplied path before moving a file on the server, allowing users with the Author role to move or rename arbitrary files, including outside the WordPress root, which can defeat directory-level access controls and disclose protected files.
